 Robotic manipulator for packaging
Abstract
Automation in Post processes like packaging is becoming more and more interesting for
production sites. In many industrial companies with a lot of various product types and sizes, the
packaging process is still performed by a human workforce. This is resulting in workplaces which
are dangerous, tedious or non-ergonomic. Many solutions have been introduced to improve the
packaging process, but most of them most of these processes only include small and light goods.
In this paper, solutions from a research project are presented that support the human worker while
packaging mid- to upper sized electronic consumer goods. These solutions include a compliant
robot that assist the human in lifting the heavy object, a surveillance and worker assistant system
that support the worker during the packaging system and finally, a flexible gripper that enables the
grasping of objects of different shape and size.
